Is the following relation a function:  

{(1,3), (2,4), (3,4)} ? 

Explain.

Yes, each input has exactly one output and it passes the VLT.

Find the inverse -1(x) of:  

f(x) = -3x + 2

f-1(x) = (-x + 2) / 3

Does the graph below represent a one-to-one function? Explain.

No; there are more than one unique input for every output and it fails the HLT.
